"today in the bay's" tracie potts is in vatican city. with you tell us what are you hearing lately? >> well, what we are hearing and what we are seeing right now, we are sort of in a waiting period, sort of a mid-day holding pattern. the cardinals wrapped up their final general meeting before they start the conclave. a couple of things happening. we got a briefing from the vatican dodd. later today, they will move the 115 electors are moving into casa santa marta. that is the vatican residence where they will stay together, cut off from the rest of the

the vatican" magazines tells us there is a drawback to selecting an american as pope. >> that would look to the rest of the world as if the religious power was sort of allies with the secular power. that would be a concern, even to the cardinals. >> we will have live reports from the vatican until the next pope is official chosen. we do have some breaking news we are following in san jose where police are investigating the city's ninth homicide of the year. a man was found shot to death near the intersection of murtha drive and east capitol expressway. very close to the scene there.

what we can tell you is that it was actually a neighbor that found the man's body as she went to work early this morning. she called her husband to tell him, hey, something does not look right. so the husband, he took a look for himself and called 911. about 4:25, police arrived to find a man, described as a 30-year-old hispanic man, shot in the chest. they say he died at the scene. they also tell us he may not be a stranger to police. >> we have had officers believe that they might have made contact with him in the past in the neighborhood. i am not sure for what. he has not been identified yet. >> a neighbor tells us he did not hear anything. he is surprised to wake up to a crime scene. >> reporter: you don't usually see san jose police out here? >> no. >> reporter: that neighbor lives

the span itself. i hear word from our traffic source. they have to close the freeways so that helicopter can land safely and get out of the area. because the helicopter is heading over there, there is not really super thick fog if they can see. still, christina is talking about fog along highway 1. folks will have to take the northern route through montara and take sharp road over towards 280. you do know about that route. the slow foing for 880. south through sinegal. it is 6:36. still ahead, we have brand new video just in of a plane that slit off of a runway at the houston airport. we'll have the latest details coming up next. plus, the latest developments in the case against

"today in the bay's" bob redell is live with new details on the investigation. good morning, bob. >> reporter: good morning to you, laura. based on the bedding material and other personal effects found on top of the elevator itself, b.a.r.t. believes this was a homeless man that had taken up residence in this shaft here at the montgomery b.a.r.t. station. this is video from down stairs. the only indication something has happened. you see the elevator door has been boarded up. around 9:30, the passenger was riding the elevator up from the

muni level to the bar concourse level. the elevator automatically stopped. it is not clear if this man was crushed while on top of the elevator or if he had somehow slid in between the elevator car and walls of the shaft. the fire department pronounced him dead on scene. it took them several hours to remove his body. b.a.r.t. is still trying to figure out how this man was able to get into the elevator shaft in the first place without being noticed by anyone. the passenger stuck in the elevator was able to get out unharmed. reporting live, bob redell in the bay. >> 6:45. a trial starts this morning on a massive wrongful termination suit against the lawrence livermore lab. five ex worke-workers appearing court claiming they were let go because of their age. the group part of a larger suit, lab officials say age had nothing to do with the layoff. the employees were let go back in 2008 shortly after lawrence livermore lab was privatized by

bridge. the south bay shows the build but it is holding off at north 101, north 87 and starting to build for north 85. a gentle build for the northbound directions. marla tellez is at this investigation of a homicide. watch capitol avenue at murtha still closed. 880 heading up toward the toll plaza. a lot of company. the toll plaza had a lot of company a communitywise search is under way for an oakland woman who simply disappeared while out on her morning jog.

church near lake merritt last night and planned where they would look today. her mom said she usually jogged around lake merritt. family said they are not pleased with the police response. i haven't heard back yet. her mom says a search of her computer suggested she may have gone to san francisco, some park over there or at least she had searched one of them. so they weren't sure if maybe she was going that day or had planned to go. that's the reason why they are going to be searching and handing out fliers at mcarthur park as well. reporting live at oakland.
